Hi, i have a little problem.. every time that my screen goes off (on my Huawei Watch 2 - Stock OS - Version 2.2), Google pay keep opening itself, and that kills my battery... I've already tried to disable the Google Pay service from the Settings but no fix was found.. anyone every had this issue? Maybe is something cause by the ambient display?

Hello everyone, I have been searching for this specific issue and have found nothing, apologies if this has been addressed. First, I am on my second week of Android after 6 years of iOS so please bear with me, I may not have all the terminology down.
I am running a Nexus 5 (bootloader unlocked if that matters) with 6.0.1, otherwise stock. It was a new-in-box model with 4.4.3 loaded, I updated by flashing it rather than a side-load. I was having the following issues with Face Unlock:
1. First issue, Face Unlock would randomly stop working, when you go into the settings to 'Improve Face Matching' it would report that 'Google Play services has stopped'. This would be accompanied by an increase in processor demand from Trusted Face and a severe drain to the battery, I am assuming it was frequently trying to connect to Google Play. No issue in Safe Mode. This was resolved by disabling Google Play and reinstalling the latest version.
2. Second issue, Face Unlock would again randomly stop working, but this would be accompanied by the Camera also failing to function. I would either get a 'Camera cannot be accessed' report or just a blank screen (camera controls visible, but no picture in the viewfinder). Going to 'Improve Face Matching' would report a problem with the camera. No issue in Safe Mode, so I am assuming the camera hardware was fine. This was resolved by disabling the Camera app and reinstalling the latest version. I had to do this twice, along with the Google Play update, before it worked consistently. This would again result in a reported drain coming from both 'Trusted Face' and the Camera app, again I am assuming it was constantly trying to connect to the Camera.
3. Last issue, Face Unlock randomly stops working, with no issues reported in either the camera or Face Unlock settings. no change in battery life and no reported processor demand using System Monitor Lite. If I open 'Improve Face Matching' I get the white screen with white dots with a permanent "Starting up..." notice. This is easy to fix, a reboot always gets it working again. Usually it stops within 6-10 hours of use, sometimes shorter or longer. Rebooting into Safe Mode also fixes the problem, but I am not sure if that is just because of the reboot. I have not run Safe Mode long enough to replicate the issue.
Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot? I suppose I can just disable Face Unlock but I find it quite handy. It seems to be a little bit different than the plethora of other Nexus 5 camera / Smart Unlock problems I have been reading up on.
So, what the title says, I just downloaded it from xpirifirm and Installed it using flashtool, am hoping to fix the problem with voice messages from WhatsApp and messenger as well (basically 1 in 10 voice messages I send go silent in the middle of the recording), there is not a changelog from Sony but they never give any so I hope this could be more than just a security patch, I want to know if any of you have installed it and if you have noticed any fix, thanks, If I find out something I will tell you. Thanks for reading.
Well, sadly I couldn't fix the issue with the voice notes, but I disabled the "ok Google" feature from the Google assistant and I haven't had any problem with voicenotes anymore, let's see if it stays like that.
It didnt solved the problem, I plan to go back to android 9
Does not feel any fix, but so frustrating 'couse battery capability is much much worse...
I think the fingerprint at least is faster and more reliable.

I fixed the voice messages disabling the feedback tactile of 3 under screen buttons
Did the upgrade change your GPS functionality? Since the day I updated, my phone started drifting. I have 25 kilometers displacement on a day staying permanently at my home office. Compared to 0.5 kilometers before the update.
I didn't understand how you fixed the voice messages, can you be more specific?
Hey guys, it's July 9th and the last firmware released for xperia xz2 is 52.1.A.2.1, will Sony stop supporting this device or what? Btw my cellphone has now a ghost touch.

Same for me! Just about a week or so, I am annoyed by the quick settings bar being occasionally pulled from top while typing on the keyboard or working in apps. With the "Show taps" option turned on from the developer settings, I can clearly see that the device sometimes detects an extra tap (draws the corresponding circle) at the very top of the screen right after I tap somewhere else. This activates the system bar and switches the focus from the app. This only happened before with the screen very dirty or wet (i.e. in the rain). However, this time cleaning it and rebooting the system didn't help. My initial idea was that I could have damaged the screen sensors or other hardware somehow. But this might be instead a planned action to support the upcoming models' sales Interestingly, there was no software update accompanying the behaviour change — seems like there are some remotely controlled sensor options their engineers could be playing around.

Thanks for sharing your experience, well I still have the ghost touch but now occurs more often and I have had another issue since some months ago ad well and tje thing is that sometimes the proximity sensor "detects" it's being covered and makes the screen flash several times during a call or hearing voice notes in whatsap, sometimes the failure is as bad that I have to restart the phone, I don't know what could be causing this problem but I have to say that I have dropped some water in my cellphone in the past two or three times, and I don't know, maybe some of this water came into the phone through the earpiece and messed with the upper part of the screen and the other sensor up there, my phone os almost a year old now, Do you guys think it might mot be water resistant anymore? And btw, have you dropped water in the phone as well? Thanks for reading.
Ever since updating to ColourOS11, android auto has been freezing on me when the screen is off however activating the screen will unfreeze it.
Is anyone else experiencing this or if anyone knows a fix besides 30m screen timeout.
The issue's been mentioned on a couple of other threads, from what I've read it seems to be a Android 11 issue in general, not just limited to Oppo / ColorOS. Haven't seen a way to fix this so far, seems like one has to wait for an update to fix it and until then keep the screen on...

Yea I had a look through some other threads. Turning off AOD and Fingerprint while screen off seems to somewhat work abiet still glitchly. Been in contact with Oppo who seems to only want me to send the phone into the service centre but I am waiting for Christmas break to be over and send it then otherwise hopefully a update by then but doubts.
I just had the issue, but by leaving it plugged in and letting the connection time out, it reset and connected. Took about a minute.
I finally got the ColorOS 11 update and now Android Auto is having this issue. Really rather annoying as I've only just got a new car and had Android Auto so was enjoying it!
Basically same issue where the car screen just locks up until you unlock the phone screen (i still get audio prompts for directions in google maps etc so Android Auto is still running). Seems to be a standoff between the OEM's and Google. Looking at other forums some OnePlus phones have the same issue (BBK group thing perhaps!)

I solved this issue going into developer options and activating the "keep screen on while charging" mode. The display will remain on, but with a very low brightness level.
When you have an app open, if it goes for a few seconds without you looking at it or interacting with the app, a digital watch screensaver goes over the app. Is there a way to turn this off? I use my watch for Google maps all the time and the digital clock drives me insane. I always have AOD on as well. I wish at worse the app would just dim like the watch face does with AOD.
I too am looking for a fix, this feature or whatever you call it is horrible.
It seems I read something about a week ago on how to remove this but I can't find that source/guide again
You can´t remove it, but try to turn off AOD, this might help
It's definitely a pain and we haven't seen any pliable work around...
I want this too. But, alas, as far as I know, it is not possible to turn off the stupid digital time screensaver. It is annoying. And turning of AOD is never an option for me.
Saw somewhere else a suggestion to use a paid app called "Staylit Wear". I just installed it and gave it a quick try with the workouts, and it seems to be keeping the display on at all times (had set it to unlimited).
Coming from a Watch3, I can't believe how in a few aspects, the Watch4 is a downgrade in useability. The problem seems to be the same on the Watch5 as well. My guess is that this issue may have happened with the transition to WearOS, where some of the functions are governed by the OS, but if a third party app can solve it, surely Samsung can as well
Hi, any update solution for this case? This still sooooo anoying when i want to check watch when driving
Hi all,
Recently got the watch 4 and this has been mind boggling me since the day i got it.
Is there any way to have Google Maps update the location on the watch with the screen of on the phone?
Navigation works fine, but as soon as i turn off the screen on the phone to put it my pocket, navigation stops updating on the watch. I guess it also stops updating on the phone as the screen is off.
I have tried several things, give location access at all time for maps on both phone and watch. Also removed any battery restrictions or power saving features for maps. Also checked the sleep lists in device care on the phone, but maps is nowhere to be found there at all and cant be added.
I did write with Samsung support and they did actually confirm that this is not a feature and that phone screen has to be on/phone unlocked for navigation to keep updating..
Is there any workaround for this at all?
Phone is a a52s 5g and it is already going mental sometimes in the pocket even when locked. God knows how many pocket screenshots I have of emergency dial with endless of numbers input.
Thats most likely a samsung/oneui problem rather than android's/watches fault.
Location updates perfectly (tho with a bit of delay) with my redmi note 7
Yes I believe so to, so maybe it was better to post this at the a52 forums. Just thought maybe someone was in the same boat as me here.
Been a happy xiaomi user for years, why did i jump on the galaxy bandwagon now
